I'm very happy to support New Zealand-made films by and about women, on Twitter and Facebook, and in my blogs. And here at Boosted, in a very small way, because I like the idea that if lots of people donate small amounts to projects they like we'll get some great new movies (etc!).
My Development project is For Women Who Make Movies; & For The People Who Love Them. Globally. I also ran #directedbywomen #aotearoa, an annual pop-up programme of films + Q&As, in its third year in 2020.
The most useful interview about my work is here, on Indiewire.
(I'm also intermittently a publisher with the Spiral Collectives, most recently for This Joyous, Chaotic Place: He Waiata Tangi-Ā-Tahu, a CNZ-funded multi-media project celebrating Heather McPherson (1942-2017), poet, lesbian feminist, activist and single mother. And three eBooks: Heather's i do not cede, edited by Emer Lyons; Keri Hulme: Our Kuru Pounamu; and Women's Film Festivals & #womeninfilm Databases. And I assess and sometimes write screenplays.)

Your campaign video
A campaign video is key to connecting with your crowd. People want to join you on your journey. The reason that people donate is that they want to engage with you and what you are doing. It really helps, when they can see the real people behind the scenes.04 Sept 2024 -

Pitching to media
Remember, not everyone you ask to give will give, so even a modest crowdfunding campaign aiming to raise a few thousand dollars requires getting in front of thousands of people.Unless you’re famous in your own right or have strong social influence, it’s unlikely you’ve got immediate access to a network of this size. Here’s where PR comes to the party.31 Aug 2024
